Try high intensity interval training using a bike.

the upshot is that you do 30 seconds at a normal pace, and then 30 secs like you are being chased by a serial killer that wants to eat you.
Supposedly 20 minutes of sprint work a week like that is worth 5-6 hours of normal cardio.
You can also swim.
In some advanced gyms they have like a reverse bike where you move pedals with your arms. ITs a bitch but it works.

My main cardio has always been running, I've never even tried anything else. BUT I just broke my foot in 3 places (cast should come off Monday) so I won't be able to run right away.
I need a cardio exercise that doesn't involve pushing off the ball of the foot. Any ideas?
